Senior Materials Engineer specializing in structural composites and bonded structures for defense technology manufacturing processes.

О компании

's Materials Engineering team is seeking a Senior Materials and Process Engineer with a background in structural composites and bonded structures to join our rapidly growing team. Our team is the materials authority across 's product portfolio, from autonomous aircraft and submarines to missiles and solid rocket motors, providing material selection guidance, developing design allowables, and qualifying manufacturing processes that take composite hardware from prototype to high-rate production.

Обязанности

As a Senior M&P Engineer, you'll work across multiple programs simultaneously, supporting design and manufacturing teams with the materials expertise they need to make confident engineering decisions. You'll generate material allowables from test data, author and maintain material and process specifications, and support the transition from rapid prototype composite designs to highly scalable solutions as ramps production. This role reports directly to the Composites M&P subject matter expert and is a critical addition to a team that is currently supporting 20+ programs. If you're someone who thrives at the intersection of materials science and manufacturing, can move fast without cutting corners on data quality, and wants to see your work on hardware that gets fielded

Требования

Bachelor's degree or higher in Materials Science, Composites Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field
5-7 years of composite materials and process engineering experience in aerospace, defense, automotive, or related industries
Strong understanding of composite material systems including thermoset and thermoplastic matrices with continuous/discontinuous fiber reinforcement (carbon, glass, aramid)
Hands-on experience with composite manufacturing processes such as prepreg layup, autoclave/out-of-autoclave cure, resin transfer molding (RTM), heated press molding, stamp forming, or filament winding
Experience generating material properties through mechanical testing per ASTM standards and developing design allowables
Familiarity with materials characterization techniques and the building block approach (coupon through component level testing)
Strong technical writing skills — ability to author specifications, test reports, and process documentation
Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally with design, manufacturing, and quality teams
Ability to obtain and hold a US security clearance

Будет плюсом

Experience with thermoplastic composite materials and processes (stamp forming, consolidation, welding)
Working knowledge of CMH-17 (Composite Materials Handbook) for allowables development and data reduction
Experience supporting structural analysis teams with lamina/laminate level material properties
Prior experience qualifying composite parts or processes for production programs
Experience with nondestructive inspection methods for composite structures (ultrasonic, X-ray, thermography)
Familiarity with composite repair methods and procedures
Experience scaling composite manufacturing from prototype to high-rate production
Experience with adhesive bonding and surface preparation for composite assemblies
